Is Unique Content Generation Possible with AI Tools?

The short answer to that question is yes. Unique content generation is entirely and very easily possible with AI tools.

Of course, we aren’t going to keep you hanging off with that.

Let’s actually delve into the whole process and see how you can create unique content with AI tools in a matter of minutes.

The Process of Creating Unique Content with AI Tools

The process of creating traditional blog content is typically divided into a few different parts. Those parts are:

1. The idea generation and planning phase
2. The content creation itself
3. The optimization and editing phase

Now let’s look at each of these steps in light of how they can be done with AI tools.

a. Idea generation and planning

The first step in making unique content is to come up with a unique idea and plan to write it.

For this, there are two classes of AI tools that you can use.

1. You can first use idea generators and outline generators directly
2. Or, you can go for AI assistants like ChatGPT and Bard to do the same thing a bit differently

By utilizing these tools, you can come up with titles and ideas for the content you want to write. Once you decide what you want to write, you can move to create outlines for your content.

This you can do with AI assistant tools, as mentioned above, or with dedicated outline creators. There are quite a few of those that you can find on the Internet:

By the end of this step, you will have a topic ready for your content as well as an outline to follow through.

To show you how an idea generator typically works, here is the one by Portent. After asking you for a keyword, here is how the tool provides different blog topics/titles. They are not all that perfect, but you can use them to get an idea.

And as you can guess, we entered the word “potato” here.

Moving on, to show you how you can create an outline, here is how the process works with ChatGPT:

b. Content Creation

Moving on, the next part of the process is to create the content itself.

Now, there are two ways in which AI tools can play a role here.

They can either take care of the entire process themselves…

…or they can play a partial assistive role in it.

If we talk about how you can complete the entire process with these tools, we will point to AI content generators. AI content generators are simple enough. They ask you to enter a keyword or a topic, that they later dilate on.

Depending on the content AI tool that you pick, there could be other prompts and settings that you may have to adjust before starting the process. For example, some tools may require you to enter the required word count for the content, etc. This will differ as per the technology used for each tool.

Now, this is the method that you can follow for complete content creation. Let’s move on to discuss how you can use these tools in an assistive capacity instead.

Using these tools in an assistive capacity basically refers to using paraphrasing tools. Paraphrasing tools don’t exactly create content, but they can rework it. You can, in theory, use them during the content writing process by writing the content yourself and then running it through a paraphrasing tool.

The benefit of this process is that you can get your final content to be mechanically perfect, i.e., being made by AI tools, but at the same time, you can keep a human and unique touch to it, i.e., since the initial content will be yours to begin with

c. Editing and Optimization

The last step in the whole content creation process is editing and optimizing. This is the part where you have to polish the content by removing imperfections and by filling in any missing gaps.

Of all the things that you have to do when creating content, the editing/optimizing part is probably the most multi-faceted. There is a whole bunch of different stuff that it entails.

Moving on, let’s look at some of the main steps involved in editing/optimizing a piece of text, along with how they can be done with AI tools.

• Finding and removing grammar errors: Although it’s unlikely that AI-created content will have grammar errors and mistakes in it, this is still an important step in the process. Tools like AI-driven grammar checkers can take care of this step quickly.

• Readability issues: Unlike grammar errors, readability issues are more likely to be present in AI-generated content. This is more so if the content generation tool that you’ve used is in the “not-that-premium” category.
  To fix readability issues, you can use an AI readability checker to first detect said issues. Once you identify the problematic parts, you can use a paraphrasing tool to reword them.

• Plagiarism: Plagiarism is yet another issue that you have to find and remove during the editing phase. You first have to detect it using a plagiarism checker and then eliminate it either by excising the plagiarized parts or rewording them using the same method mentioned above, i.e., with paraphrasing tools.

Conclusion

And that gives it a wrap.

Creating unique content can be done with the help of AI tools, as we have generously elaborated above. The process is usually divided into three parts, i.e., the planning, the writing, and the optimizing. All three of these can either be wholly accomplished with AI tools, or they can play a major assistive role in the same instead.
